Mythe Chapel

[2] An old group of stables originally occupied the site and were partly incorporated into the new building to which windows, niches and buttresses (in the Gothic style then fashionable) were added.

“A gentleman, in the neighbourhood, is willing to assist in establishing a chapel in Tewkesbury, when this desirable object can be entered upon with a probability of success”.

On 8 December 1870 Pope Pius IX declared St Joseph to be Patron of the Universal Church.

[4] The Mythe Chapel was used for industrial purposes before being converted into residential housing by Peter and Wendy Vose between 1988 and 1990.

The old presbytery was converted into September House and the main chapel was converted into a pair of cottages (1 and 2 September Cottages) retaining the original oak beams and carved oak chapel door as interior features.
